In the dyin' light of Malone's twin suns
Setting o'er the cityscape
I find you in the back of an orphan-house
Dreamin' of escape
Well, the name's Smooth Mickey, I been watchin' your work
And I like the way that it burns
But you don' understand who runs this world
And I think it's time you learned
Well, the Lucky Sevens, they rule the streets
The dice are loaded and they play for keeps
The fire burns bright in the cool, dark night
When the Sevens are in luck
So take my hand and let's get out of here
Uncle Mickey will show ya the way
We can use your pyromaniacal talents
Ashes, what d'ya say?
Well, all eleven years of my life
I've been alone and now there's you
So hand me the matches and the gasoline
'Cause we've got work to do (Yes, we do)
Well, I'm a Lucky Seven, I'm a mob elite
I got loaded dice and I was born to cheat
The fire burns bright in the heat of the night
When the Sevens are in luck
♪
Mickey, I've been a Seven a long, long time
Twelve years if it's been a day
Well, the Aces are moving on our turf
And they seem to know our play (What you sayin'?)
We got a stool pigeon in our ranks
And I've been hunting down the snitch
Well, the trail leads back to you, Uncle dear
And payback's gonna be a bitch
Well, I always knew you were a real smart kid
I figured you might track me down
But they don't call me Smooth Mickey for nothin'
I'm the big boss of this town
Well, you see, I needed a fall guy
For the Sevens to send to the grave
And by the smoke that ya smell and the heat at your heels
You can guess whose name I gave
Well, the Lucky Sevens, they got you beat
Your dice may be loaded, but they melt in the heat
The fire burns bright under you tonight
'Cause Ashes, you're outta luck
Oh, the fire scorches your flesh
And the smoke fills your lungs
Looks like ya rolled snake-eyes, Ashes O'Reilly
I guess your game is done
♪
Ashes?! What, no no no, ain't no way, I saw you burn
Yeah, it's funny how that worked out for you, isn't it?
What, what happened here, it was nothing personal...
Join up with me an' the Aces, we're gonna rule this world
I think I'll pass, actually
Killing me ain't gonna do ya no good, Ashes!
Oh, but it'll make me feel so much better
No, wait, wait, wait, it's not just me
The Aces, the Sevens, the cops, they're all in it together
What're ya gonna do?
Ain't enough gasoline out there to burn down an entire planet
It's funny, actually
I might've believed you, if you'd said that a while ago
But... things have changed
No, Ashes...
Ashes, wait!
♪
Well, the Lucky Sevens have lost their game
Loaded dice don't help when your world's aflame
The fire burns bright everywhere tonight
'Cause the Sevens
The Sevens
The Sevens are out of luck
